Plan B Forum

WALLACE: OK. You have endorsed more than 50 candidates, a lot of them in competitive primaries, who are going to be on the ballot on

November 2nd. Many of them are running very strong races, but I want to talk to you about two who some would say are not.

In the Delaware Senate race, your candidate, Christine O'Donnell, has turned what looked like a sure Republican pickup into a likely loss. In the Alaska Senate race, your candidate, Joe Miller, is in free-fall when it turned out that he misused government computers and lied...

PALIN: Because -- because...

WALLACE: ... and lied about it. Let me finish my question.

PALIN: OK. All right. Well, hurry up, then, because I have a lot to say, so...

WALLACE: OK. But haven't some of your tea party endorsees, your tea party candidates, shown they're not ready for prime time?

PALIN: Oh, that's -- OK. First, with Christine O'Donnell, when given a choice, "Why in the world would I have supported the liberal, the RINO, the pro-cap-and-tax, wishy-washy..."[Mike Castle voted against the MOAP, and against The Healthcare Bill]

WALLACE: Mike Castle?

PALIN: "... on "Obamacare" Mike Castle if given a choice?" Of course I'm going to support the conservative in that. So you know, there again...

(CROSSTALK)

WALLACE: But what if she loses?

PALIN: Well, who was going to guarantee that Castle was going to win anyway? As you're saying, it's a blue state. It's a liberal state. [Earth to Palin: Castle was leading Coons by 20 points in the polls, and has been elected state-wide as Delaware's sole Congressman seven times] So given the choice, yeah, give it the old college try and allow the conservative in the race to have the message, the voice heard.

Miller on Thursday -- it was revealed -- and we have the tape that proves it -- that the CBS reporters, the affiliate in Alaska, conspired to make up stories about Joe Miller.

Palin: We have the tape, Chris, [I can hardly wait to hear this "tape"...Where's the "tape" Sarah?] and I can't wait till it busts out all over the nation to show what it is that we -- kind of what I put up with for two years now with the media -- but what Joe Miller is faced with in dealing with somebody who feels -- Lisa Murkowski -- so entitled to that seat that she and some of her people, including some complicits in the media, will do anything. They will stop at nothing...

WALLACE: You're saying -- you're saying -- wait a minute. You're saying...

PALIN: ... to allow Lisa Murkowski to get back elected.

WALLACE: ... and I must say, you're bringing this story -- you're saying that local reporters in Alaska conspired with the Murkowski campaign to put out false information...

PALIN: I am saying...

WALLACE: ... about Joe Miller?

PALIN: I am saying -- and we have it on tape -- that CBS reporters of -- in the affiliate up there in Alaska on tape are saying, Let's find a child molester in the crowd as a supporter for Joe Miller. Let's blast that. Let's concoct a Ron Paul moment there, [WHAT is she talking about?] let's find any kind of chaos so that we can tweet an alert saying, ooh, there is chaos.

Joe Miller got punched, or by -- that's sick.

WALLACE: Karl Rove...

PALIN: Yeah.

WALLACE: ... said the other day you did a great job as the vice presidential candidate in '08 -- you know where I'm going to go with this. But he added this, and let's put it up on the screen, "With all due candor, appearing on your own reality show on Discovery Channel" -- he had that wrong -- "I am not certain how that fits in the American calculus of 'that helps me see you in the Oval Office.' There are high standards that the American people have for it, the presidency, and they require a certain level of gravitas."

PALIN: You know, I agree with that, that those standards have to be high for someone who would ever want to run for president, like, umm, wasn't Ronald Reagan an actor? Wasn't he in Bedtime for Bonzo, Bozo?

So that Ronald Reagan was an actor.

You've done nothing but ridicule and belittle Sarah Palin from the day she was identified as a possible running mate for McCain.

Lord Jim wrote:No Mrs. Palin, "that Ronald Reagan" served eight years as Governor of the most populous state in the union before being elevated to the Presidency; please do not compare yourself and your half term as Governor of Alaska to the record of The Gipper....

[Yeah.

Don't you dare. You're just a pathetic little pipsqueak. You've never managed to corrupt America anywhere near as much as Ronald the Felon did.

"My observation of Sarah Palin," says CBS News political analyst Nicolle Wallace, "is that she is one of the shrewdest political figures in our country at this moment. She's also one of the most electric."

she is one of the shrewdest political figures in our country at this moment.

I have to go bang my head on the wall now.

You really have an enormous amount of bitterness towards the man who won the Cold War, don't you?
